Slave stabs slave in no-weapons zone

Date: 100909
Planet: Talus
Region: New Doros

Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).

New Doros is starting to become known for the numerous slavers and slaves that live and work there. Aak the Toydarian is among the most (in)famous of the slavers, and his slaves, almost all twi'leks, are a common sight in New Doros.

Less common was the sight of one of his twi'lek slaves, Stepi, getting stabbed by Shy, a lethan twi'lek slave of Governor Cas-Ru Roben, in the cantina of New Doros. How Shy managed to get a knife into the cantina - presumably a no-weapons zone - remains as unclear as the reasons for this attack, though rumor is that there is a strong rivalry among twi'lek slaves, which apparently became violent.

According to all reports the two slave owners settled matters cordially, with Governor Roben sending Aak a monetary compensation, which countered speculation that the slaves were just acting for their owners. Though since other rumors claim that the conflict between the two twi'leks is still going on, possibly involving other slaves, this may not have been the end of this.
